hCG Diet Overview:

Here are the program steps you will follow:
  1. The original diet calls for 15 drops of hCG 3 times a day. However; studies have shown that 6 drops 6 times per day is more effective. This allows the hCG to be more constant in your system. I recommend to do 6 drops 6 times per day.
  2. Here is how to administer the drops for best aborption: Place 6 drops under your tongue and let them sit for 15 seconds before swallowing. Then do not eat or drink for 15 minutes.
  3. I have posted the "diet protocol" separately on this blog. This is what you will eat for the duration of the program. The rules are pretty straight forward. Please don't hesitate to ask if you have ANY questions!
  4. Days 1 and 2- Eat everything and anything! The more fat, the better. I know, it sounds crazy, but the drops take 3 days to "kick in" and this will help significantly with hunger during the next week. Day 3- begin full diet protocol.
  5. Continue the drops until you reach your desired weight. Do NOT take the drops for more than 45 days. If you do have additional weight to lose after the 45 days, please contact me for further instructions.
  6. Continue the 500 calorie diet for 72 hours after your last dose of hCG. This is how long it will take for the hCG to be eliminated from your system.
  7. For 3 weeks after your last dose of hCG, all foods are allowed except starch and sugar in any form (careful with very sweet fruit). Weight must NOT vary more than 2 pounds over/under your weight on the last day of dosing.
  8. After 3 weeks, very gradually add starch in small quantaties, always controlled by morning weighing. Add until weight remains stable.
